Pecan trees and most other fruit trees can be grown organically with great success. In fact, it is the only logical way to go. Pecan trees and other fruit trees should never have bare soil in the root zone, but should always be covered with shredded native mulches and/or native grasses and legumes. Trees should be planted high with natural organic techniques so that the trunk flares are dramatically above ground. Exposing the flares properly is the most important first step. Trees that are not exposed properly will respond remarkably to the removal of excessive mulch and soil.
